Hi ladies I'm super stressed and upset as my almost 9 month old ds is severely constipated to the point he scream cries in pain every time he tries to poo and only a small bullet size poo comes out that's stiff.
Tried coconut & olive oil inside bum, tried giving him oil orally, tried water but it's been about 5-6 days and nothing is helping.
Got him glycerol suppositories today but they kept causing him pain so he'd scream cry as I put them in which would make him tense up and the suppository would just pop out. Tried holding it in with my finger while he remain laying down and some melted but he just kept crying and screaming in pain and then I started crying too so just let it pop out and then fed him.
I am on the way to the docs now but just wanted to see if anybody else has had similar experiences and what ended up working for them?
He's exclusively breastfed bar the occasional solids (only fruit and veg) and been constipated before but the coconut oil in bum and drinking water brought it all out within 30mins.
I think it's banana that has caused this as both this time and last time he had had banana a few days in a row.
